Gastric volvulus: a case report and a review of literature.

Volvulus of sigmoid colon and cecum is not uncommon in tropical Africa, but gastric volvulus is relatively rare, especially when compared with various causes of peptic ulcer syndrome seen at the University College Hospital in Ibadan, Nigeria.A case of chronic intermittent type of gastric volvulus with superficial gastric ulcerations was recently seen and treated by vagotomy, pyloroplasty, and gastropexy.Predisposing factors, various types, presentations, and management of gastric volvulus are discussed.Since an acute attack of gastric volvulus, which is rare and possibly fatal if not adequately treated, can be confused with gastric outlet obstruction resulting from chronic duodenal ulcer, which is common, an index of suspicion is essential for the diagnosis of gastric volvulus.

Ventral marsupialisation in the treatment of gastric dilatation-volvulus in two dogs.

A ventral marsupialisation technique is described which was used successfully to manage gastric dilatation-volvulus (GDV) in two large breed dogs. The procedure allowed the stomach to be completely and rapidly emptied and lavaged without peritoneal contamination. Drainage was maintained in the postoperative period for both dogs and the technique was expected to result in a permanent ventral gastropexy.
